Brent, Have you checked the ignition switch? I had a similar experience
with another LBC which was cutting out then finally failed completely. It
did look a lot like a fuel problem because it would fire on turn-over while
the ballast resistor was shunted (coil power from the starter tap), then die
shortly after the key returned to the "run" position. It was a bear of a
problem to debug because it began as an intermittent thing and both fuel and
ignition checked out good while I was cranking it.
Hope your problem turns out to be something as simple to fix.
Regards,
Bob Douglas
